Moon Guadalajara: Including Lake Chapala (Moon Handbooks) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Having lived in Guadalajara for four years 35 years ago I knew that the city had grown substantially and I would need a guide book to get around. This book is very complete and up to date, much better than I had expected. I especially like the "Getaways" section that suggests day trips all around the region.

Moon Washington (Moon Handbooks) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I recently purchased the Moon Handbook Washington, 8th edition.
Previously I have used the 6th edition by Don Pitcher. Even though the older edition is outdated regarding lodging, restaurants, etc, I found it to me much more helpful and better organized.
Specifically, I appreciated all the local area maps in the older edition (112), versus only 44 maps in the 8th edition. Also, the index in the older edition was much handier, with the separate boxes for individual topics such as fairs, ferry service, hiking and lighthouses.
